It didn't take very long for Banksy's Dismaland art exhibition, held over the summer in Weston-super-Mare, to be recuperated by some of those who the artist may have thought he was critiquing. I spotted this poster in Brockley last month, seemingly from property developers South London Land looking for potential local sites with the headline 'From Dismaland to Wonderland'. I first thought it must be satire, but I think it was actually chutzpah.

Hello Kitty - Cat added to Banksy's dog in Bermondsey
Banksy painted his 'Haring Dog' image on a wall in The Grange SE1 in 2010 - the building owner then covered in Perspex to preserve it.
More recently another image has been painted next to it (anyone know by who?), adding a cat or two to Banksy's dog.
